Who is the beneficiary under the will ? Your wife has 50% share in her fathers property with her mother who too is the 50% share holder in her husbands property. If your mother-inlaw dies intestate then your wife becomes the legal heir of your parent-inlaw property and you would not be needing any heir certificate or succession certificate.
